TIE COlIENIUS CLUE.
An Address ana Discussion on "Tho
Training Of the Hand and the Eye"

The Comenius Club is an association
composed OF women exclusively, who make
the subject OF Education their special study,

ods OF mental and physical development.

land Able, 20l7 street northwest, the sub
ject Of discussion was "The Training Of
Hand and Eye,n and the address OF the oc-
casion was delivered by Professor Edward
Mussey Hartwell OF Johns Hopkins Univer-
si,y, who, In most lucid aud entertaining
manner, argued that mental training
detriment OF bodily training, but that
each should be given Its proper
place In the compulsory curriculum
OF our public schools, under the conduct
OF specially trained and well qualified
teachers In systematic and rational way.
He holds that one OF the main defects Of
cur present educational course consists Ia
he fact that lessons and tasks are set which
involve the activity OF the accessory, most
unstable and last developed parts OF the
nervous system before the fundamental
parts have been perfectly trained. WASH
ington affords peculiar advantages for the
trial of physiological, natural and rational
system Of training the organs OF sensation
and motion, whose brightest representatives
are the eye and the hand. The address was
followed by discussion In which Professor
Able, General X. d. Mussey, Professor Fay,
DR.. Gallaudet and others participated.
The models and drawings exhibited were

REFORMS IN FUNERALS.
An Attempt to Check Extravagant an
Unnecessary Display.

A movement is being made among the
clergymen Of this city to bring about a
number of reforms in the management OF
funerals. 1t is designed to check extrava-
gance, display and bad taste, to insist upon
sanitary precautions now disregarJed, and
clergy are disposed TO regard the modern
funeral as partaking too much Of the nature
Of an undertaker's advertisement, and to
have lost its impressive and appropriate
character and teaching. Some OF the mat
tiers sought to reform are the great expense,
elaborate floral and other displays, funeral
sermons, public exposure Of the features Of
the dead and public farewells to the dead,
Sunday funerals, etc.
